Meningitis Information

On March 13^th we were very fortunate to have Olympian Charmaine Crooks come to Mount Elizabeth to speak to our Grade 9-12 students. Charmaine is a Canadian athlete, five time Olympian and Olympic Silver Medalist. Charmaine gave a very inspirational talk about her journey, leadership and team building.

We would like to extend a very special thank you to Rio Tinto who made this experience for our students and staff possible by arranging for Charmaine to visit Mount Elizabeth. We would like to acknowledge Richard Prokopanko and Kevin Dobbin from Rio Tinto who were instrumental in making the arrangements. We appreciate the support that we receive from Rio Tinto in helping to provide these types of learning experiences for our students. Thank you!
